Description

Ladies silver and marcasite Excalibur wrist watch, 1965.

The watch has a Swiss 21-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely.

The watch measures 16mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is silver and has hallmarks inside the case back for Edinburgh 1965, with a maker’s mark for British Watch Cases Ltd. The case is in good condition, as is the lens (some white reflection showing in the photos). All the marcasites are in place.

The dial is signed with the name Excalibur. This brand name was registered in 1957 by Henry Showell Ltd of Birmingham. The dial is in beautiful condition with original hands.

The watch comes on an expanding bracelet.

The watch comes in a vintage presentation box, some darkening to the fitted interior and a few minor marks to the outside, but still nice to have.

FAQs

A marcasite watch is a timepiece adorned with small, faceted pieces of pyrite set in sterling silver, a style popularized during the Victorian, Art Deco, and Retro periods to mimic the sparkle of diamonds.

These watches typically feature sterling silver cases and bracelets set with iron pyrite (marcasite) stones, housing mechanical or manual-wind movements behind a glass or acrylic crystal.

Authentic pieces often feature hallmark stamps for sterling silver, individually prong-set or gypsetter-set stones rather than glued ones, and mechanical movements characteristic of mid-20th-century watchmaking.

A vintage silver watch functions effectively as a delicate bracelet, pairing well with evening wear or adding a touch of classic detail to minimalist daily outfits.

Keep the watch away from water and moisture to protect the mechanical movement and prevent the silver from tarnishing prematurely, avoiding liquid silver dips which can loosen glued or pronged marcasite stones.
